Jaconé Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Right, listen up. Rusty here. Let’s talk about Jaconé for the next couple of weeks.

The first few days are pretty flat and ordinary, but there’s a real pulse of size and energy coming through mid-month. Most of the run is small to moderate, but that second week is where the meat is. Water temp is sitting at 73°, which feels about average for this time of year—nothing wild there.

We start off on Sunday the 2nd with a tiny 3 ft ESE windswell, cross-off breeze, real poor stuff – not worth a paddle. Monday the 3rd is better: that morning you get 4 ft from the ENE with a clean 3 mph offshore from the NE. It’s surfable but very ordinary. By Monday afternoon the wind shifts cross-off again but the energy is moderate (202). Tuesday the 4th morning has offshore wind and 3 ft but the period jumps to 8 seconds. Still ordinary.

Wednesday the 5th morning though—that’s the first real standout early on. We’ve got a 3 ft swell from the south with a long 12-second period, light offshore wind from the NNE, and the combined energy is pumping at 615. It says expect very good surf conditions. That’s clean, lined-up, proper. Get on it.

Thursday the 6th morning has 5 ft from the ENE, offshore breeze, decent energy (341) – good, solid, but not a standout like Wednesday. Friday and Saturday drop right off.

Sunday the 9th afternoon brings a glassy 4 ft from the ENE, energy at 235, wind is glass – that’s a nice, clean little session for a mellow surf. Totally ridable.

Now, the big stuff. Monday the 11th is where it changes. The morning sees 7 ft from the SSW, cross-off wind, and a massive 1067 energy reading. That’s borderline big. Afternoon pushes 8 ft and 1379 energy – this is getting heavy. Tuesday the 12th morning hits 10 ft from SSW with a 13-second period and energy of 3098. That’s a beast. But the comments say it’s too big for the break – unless you’re an expert, stay out. The wind is light cross-shore, which is good for shape, but with that size at a beach break, it’s gonna be a washing machine for most. Wednesday the 13th and Thursday the 14th hold at 7 to 8 ft, long period, cross-off winds – that’s expert territory, but clean. By Friday the 15th and Saturday the 16th we drop back to 7 to 7 ft from the south, solid offshore winds, still plenty of energy. Decent for experienced surfers.

After that, Sunday the 17th fades to 5 ft and then 2 ft by Monday the 18th. The last few days are ordinary again.

Best on offer: Wednesday the 5th morning – that 3 ft S groundswell, light offshore, clean, and good energy is the pick for a fun, quality session without the insanity. If you’re an expert and hungry for power, Tuesday the 12th morning has the biggest, cleanest swell of the run but it’s for big-wave crew only.

Keep your eye on the forecasts for that second week – the long-range stuff looks promising but less certain.

Rusty.
